Even if he drives it for a day? He can't feel the real auto characteristics. Like mentioned before. It takes time for throttle response to be in sync with the auto. Like a week or 2 or a couple hundred miles of driving. Once the car is broken in well. After 5k miles things really flow well together...
Most OG's here don't hate. And we do get along. Auto bashing, we hope ended in 2010? Don't take imports comment as bashing. Its more like serious misinformation and lack of any experience with VQ mounted jatco automatic transmissions.
i was just being funny with the getting along comment lol everyone on here gets along pretty well in my experiences. when i test drove both cars i had to do it at diff dealerships since the auto test drive i pissed the sales rep off since i was a bit "rough" with it lol luckily with the stick the dude just trhew me the keys and my friend and i took it for a 15 min test drive without the sales rep lol bad choice on his part. i ran that Z through the gauntlet to see if the manual was more me than the auto.

i'll stand by my auto all day
